Let me first say that all gifts are a blessing to receive. As they say, “it’s the thought that counts.”

Now with that being said, let’s be real…

We all have certain things that we like and dislike. It’s ok not to like a gift you receive. It doesn’t mean you are not grateful; just simply means it’s not your style.

The worst Christmas gift I ever received was a pair of colorful socks. Now don’t get me wrong, it’s not the socks that I disliked, it was the design of it. This person, who happened to be a coworker from a job I had years ago, knew that it was clearly not my style.

What made it worst is that I put so much time and effort into buying that person a gift that I knew they would love. To add salt to the wound, when I opened my gift, my other coworkers smirked when they saw the socks. They laughed because they knew it was a last minute thoughtless gift.
